RMU BACK TO NATIONALS!!!!!!

Robert Morris is headed back to the the National Championship!

RMU wins Regionals and sets sights on Holland, MI for NATIONALS.

The ACHA Atlantic Regional Finals were held at the Delmont Arena March 18-19th.

RMU met #10 Seed PSU Brandywine in the first round. Brandywine off a second semester 6-1 record took an early 1-0 lead over RMU early Friday night. RMU answered 2 times in the first period, and dominated the next 2 periods as RMU rolls to the finals with a 5-1 win.
RMU out shot PSU 51-21.

RMU would need to beat the #6 seed PSU Altoona for the 3rd time this season to "EARN A CHANCE TO DANCE" at the National Tourney.
PSU came out flying and ready to play, but RMU stuck first with an early first period goal. PSU would get one back late in the period to tie the first 1-1. RMU would get the only goal in the second to take a 2-1 lead into the 3rd period. With 20 minutes to play Altoona struck first in the third, 2-2 with 13 minutes to play.... RMU would take the lead back 47 seconds later and cap off the win with a PowerPlay goal to seal the deal 4-2.
RMU out shot PSU 36-28 and didn't lose a period of hockey all weekend!
